2022 Super Flex Keeper League - Week 3


Playoff Hunt

Current Standings

The hunt for the playoffs as it stands. All-play is the record if all teams were to play each other every week. xWins is the number of wins you would have expected so far based on the all-play record. The playoff and bye % is calculated by calculating player scores since 2012 based on their rank and sampling these to give a score for each simulation. The optimal lineup is calculated and then an efficiency score is calculated to give the starting lineup score. 1000 different seasons have been simulated using the wins to date and the remaining fixtures for each team. Strength of roster is taken into account in these calculations.


The top two teams in each division will progress to the playoffs, along with the two remaining teams with the most wins, regardless of division. Points scored will be used as a tie-breaker.

Wins over Expectation

Wins over expectation (WOE) looks at the relationship between actual wins and all-play wins. This shows how lucky or unlucky a team has been with the schedule.

The dots on the chart below show how many wins the team have, whilst the arrow shows where they should actually be if the H2H format wasn’t in place. Teams with arrows pointing right can count themselves unlucky, whilst teams with arrows pointing left are fortunate to have as many wins as they do.

benturvill61 has been the luckiest so far, with 0.9 more wins than expected.

LannySenior can feel hard done by, with 0.8 fewer wins than expected.


Win Projections

The following chart shows the distribution of total expected wins over the season. Any wins so far have been included in the calculation, and you would expect the spread to reduce as the season progresses and the win totals become more certain.

Projected Season Rank

Using the win totals from the chart above, the following chart shows the likelihood of each team finishing in a given position.

Point Projections for Week 4

The following chart shows the distribution of points for the upcoming week.

Using the outputs from above, the next chart shows the probability of each team of winning the week 4 matchup against their opponent.


Story of the Season

The following chart shows the performance of each team as the season has progressed. This is calculated as the xWins for each week minus the average wins each week (0.5). This strips out any influence of matchup and purely looks at your points position in a given week.

For example, an increasing line in the first half of the season followed by a decreasing line over the second half would signify good performance to start the year, but a poor run to end the season.
